SIGNED | Thursday, April 8, 2021
#SIGNED: @karikirklandmusic’s album arrived! This beautiful album joins a collection of awesome signed records by #Bowie, #RunDMC and #TheWho (Pete Townsend lives up the road) and well-deserved. #wildisthewind #low #walkthisway #vinyl #davidbowie #jazz
SOTT | Friday, September 25, 2020
#SOTT: picking a favourite @prince album is pointless, since the standards were so mind-bogglingly high, but this stands-out as a universal high-water-mark in his life. I remember so many trips to the shops to turn this album over in my hand and look at it until I could afford it, and finally listening to the beast with the lyrics in my hands. Who the heck has time to do that anymore? I am pretty excited about the book in this package, and the unreleased material, but really, I want to hear the remastered sound, because the original is terrible. This still cannot mask the album’s genius and proves his point that people will forgive the sound on the strength of the material. #signofthetimes #signothetimes #signothetimessuperdeluxe #vinyl #prince #superdeluxeboxset #1987

#VINYL: two excellent birthday presents, one deferred until today. Stunning #MilesDavis session and the new #TheWho album signed by Mr Townshend @yaggerdang at our brilliant local record shop @sleeve_notes_records (I turned up early this morning to bag a copy). Both recommended. I cannot believe how good the Miles Davis is, in fact, previously only available on CD on the Complete In A Silent Way Sessions - which I may have to get now… #music #jazz #rock

Support your local #recordshop. Ken @sleeve_notes_records ordered this beautiful new album from @avamusic for me. Cheaper than AMZN and no tax evasion. Support culture. #music #vinyl

I have had this album for 11 years and not opened it until now! I had no idea! They provided FLAC files which I’ve played instead and look at the record! Dang! @wendymelvoin #wendyandlisa #whiteflagsofwinterchimneys is named for #JoniMitchell’s stunning lyric in #Hejira. #vinyl #vinylcollection
RSD | Saturday, April 13, 2019
A brief trip for #RSD down to @sleeve_notes_records brought no #Elastica, sadly, but did find me some #Prince and #GrandmasterFlashAndTheFuriousFive to educate junior with. #WreckaStowDay #vinylcollection #vinyl
JanelleMonae | Saturday, April 13, 2019
I am definitely more a fan of #JanelleMonae the artist than her work, which I don’t always get straight away, but it’s undeniably brilliant once you get it, and this - #DirtyComputer - is a fabulous record, even if I always start playing it at 33rpm instead of 45 because they have to be different. #vinylcollection #vinyl #DirtyComputer
